Presentation Transcript

  1. Energy in cells (Respiration and Photosynthesis)

  2. Photosynthesis • Chemical process that captures light energy and stores it as potential chemical energy, only in autotrophs • Occurs in the … • 2 Stages • Light phase • Dark phase

  3. Structure of a chloroplast Granum – thylakoids membranes containing chlorophyll. Stroma – clear liquid interior How can you tell which phase occurs where? How has surface area been maximised? What is the green colour from?

  4. Photosynthesis The purpose is to capture light energy from the sun and store it as chemical energy in glucose molecules for use inside the plants. It also: • Removes carbon dioxide from the air • Needs water, gained by osmosis from the soil into the root hair cells and up the xylem vessels • Makes oxygen gas for use in respiration in all living organisms Photosynthesis reaction summary: Carbon dioxide + water glucose + oxygen CO2 + H2O C6H12O6 + O2

  5. Carriers molecules in P/S • ATP – the energy carrier • ADP (empty) • Transports energy from light phase to dark phase • NADP – the hydrogen carrier • NADPH2 (full) • Transports hydrogen from light phase to dark phase

  6. Stages in Photosynthesis

  7. How plants maximise the rate of photosynthesis See handout and discuss this concept in relation to the leaf model and the chloroplast diagram

  8. Factors affecting photosynthesis reaction rate: Photosynthesis is controlled by enzymes so anything that affects enzymes also affects photosynthesis, including; • Temperature (most plants have an optimum range) • Light intensity (can differ for different plants, canopy verses forest floor plants), no photosynthesis in the dark! • CO2 concentration (substrate) • Low water availability causes the stomata to close and CO2diffusion to stop.

  10. Cellular Respiration All living cells must carry out cellular respiration and the purpose is too release the energy stored in food (glucose) and make it available to power all other metabolic reactions (in both auto and heterotrophs) • Occurs in the (name organelle here?) • There are two types (aerobic and anaerobic)

  11. Structure of a mitochondria Cristae are the folded inner membranes. Why are they folded? The matrix is the liquid inside . What stages take place here? Mitochrondria are found in all living cells but in general animals cells have more than plants and any cells that need more energy have more e.g. muscle and liver cells have high energy demands so have more….

  12. Aerobic Respiration • Cellular respiration with oxygen • Also guided by enzymes • Glucose (food) and oxygen convert to lots of energy (ATP) with waste products of CO2 and H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2  6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP glucose oxygen carbon dioxide water energy

  13. 4 Stages of aerobic respiration • Glycolysis, • Link reaction (formation of Acetyl Coenzyme A), • Krebs cycle, • Electron transport chain The stages are linked by carrier molecules…

  14. 4 stages of aerobic respiration

  15. Carriers (molecules that link stages of aerobic respiration) • Co-enzyme A – an acetyl carrier • Acetyl co-enzyme A (full) • Transports acetyl group from glycolysis to Krebs cycle • NAD – the hydrogen carrier • NADH2(full) • Transports hydrogen from Krebs cycle to Electron transport chain

  16. Anaerobic respiration • Respiration without oxygen • Stops after glycolysis (stage 1) • Much less energy (ATP) produced • Different waste or byproducts produced • Plants Glucose  carbon dioxide + ethanol + 2ATP • Animals Glucose  lactic acid + 2ATP

  17. Factors affecting respiration All respiration reactions are controlled by enzymes. The same things that effect enzymes can affect the respiration plus: • Too much toxic product. Too much carbon dioxide (any aerobic respiration) and too much ethanol or lactic acid (anaerobic respiration) is toxic. Toxic products must be removed during respiration for it to continue efficiently. List the other factors that affect respiration reactions from your enzyme notes….

  18. Biozone Level 7 Biology text • Read pages 126 – 129 • Do Exercises 1 – 3 page 128 • Do Exercises 1-3 page 129

  19. P P P P P P ATP • Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the universal energy carrier in all cells • Cellular respiration is the process of recharging ADP (Adenosine diphosphate) to ATP

  20. -P Role of ATP (Energy carrier molecule) Energy released from breaking off one phosphate (-P) from ATP. Where? ATP ADP Respiration recharges ADP to ATP using energy and adding one phosphate (+P). Where? +P
